Whew…it’s been a crazy month!

Hi blogland!  What is it that they say about good intentions?  🙂  My intentions were big for the blog for July posts but alas that’s all fallen by the wayside as we round down to the end of the month.  I can hardly believe back to school shopping is here and the kids will be in school in less than a month!  Where has summer gone?

Before I get to the "what I did this summer" part of the blog, I’d love to ask you, the blog reader, to vote for Marmalade Photography for Chicago area Family Photographer.  Please follow the link here:

(Part of) What We Did this summer:

Part of summer 2010 was spent in beautiful North Carolina.  We spent several days in the mountains in the Ashville area near a small town called Brevard.  We stayed up up UP in the mountains at a fabulous resort…I’ll post more about that in my next entry.  The remainder of our time away was spent in gorgeous North Topsail Beach, NC.  We stayed at a lovely home right on the beach with remarkable views of the sand with the rolling waves of the Atlantic greeting us daily.  THAT was the life.

Because photos are worth 1,000 words I’ll let you be the judge of the insane relaxation and beauty.  I only got my camera out a handful of times while we were gone because I was so sick almost the whole time away.  But I want to go back (now!)  Is it time to go back to the beach?

 

I think I want a career in photographing families frolicking on vacation and just hanging out with them for the week or so.  Any takers?  😀

Thank you for stopping in.
